Bought an Official Harridge Reach American League baseball signed by Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig and Ty Cobb (authenticated by Harvey Brandwein) for $500 in 1988 at Chanute AFB, Illinois. According to Mr. Brandwein, the ball was probably signed in 1934. Yes, you could buy cards and memorabilia very, very cheap. But at the time, $500 clams seemed like a crazy amount of money to shell out for a baseball signed by anyone.
